Mariners 2023 - 2024 offseason thread

[ulmax]

No Jon..your profits won't.
Even be close...
If you have any at all..

 

[ulmax]

That said I'm done with ya.
And expect.nothing..
From.the.mariners..

Which.i.expect..is..exactly.
What...I'll get..

 

[ulmax]

The proclamation..

Let it be nown..jon.stanton..
Only wants..
To suck..baseball..
Dry..of the money..
And use..none .to further..
The mariners. Cause..

Hence..should..be..called..
Bad..and.
Disgusting....

So let it be written..
So let it be done....

Not sure on Kirby. Did it ever come out that Jerry offered him a contract like he did with Evan White, Kelenic and Gilbert? It seems to me Seattle would be a good place for him to resign. Had he made the comments he made in a bigger market it would’ve been a much bigger story.

Never heard it mentioned. I doubt he wants to stick around anyways. I don't.

 

[NWinAZ]

So I am still confused about the timeline.

Pre-offseason: We will add payroll
Offseason: Traded Suarez to free up money
Then: Trade Trio to add payroll flexibility
Then: Servais says players text him and he told them they will be really happy about the players (plural I heard) that are coming here.
Then: 'crickets'

I know it is 'still early', but what happened to the guys Servais was talking about? They change their minds? They never existed?

That's what .I mean .it's.
Stanton..and owners..
Nothing .else..

It's not .Jedi or Scott..or.players..its .owners...
I'm not scremming my ..
Backside.off for nothing..
They.really..only.care.about money....only..

Kik.them.out....
Or limit..them..

I want an owner that cares
About baseball.

 

[ulmax]

I'm with..all.the moves.they.
Have made..
Cuz..
With an other..1b..you.can put..France at 3b..
And that is better..than.
Suarez..

But kelenic...all.that.can be done there is ...
Estuary.ruiz..then.platoon.left field...with.canzone
But they still.have a chance.

The owners.put.the.

kibash.on everything..
That is wrong..

Yeah there is still a chance.
A fools.chance..

Gandolf..would say..(Lord of the rings).
But mariners .have enough..to.do.it.
The fools chance.is..

Owners won't.let it happen...
Ooohh..there will.be excuse.after.excuse..of
Wee.broke..

Your backside..
You steal .company..money(fans money)...
And use.it for.yourself..

 

[ulmax]

That said..I could.try.to figure.it out .but why..
In my heart..and head
I know they won't let..it
Happen..
So.im.screaming..get..them.gone..

 

[ulmax]

My fixes so far.

1 Crawford..ss.
2 Julio..cf....ruiz..

3.naylor.1b.would be just.
What.they need..or.

[ulmax]

With no money..I'm.trying.
Paxton .LHP..for 10 mil

If ya get..till all star break.
You have made it..with pax.
If he goes all the way..
Ok then
Pax is good enough to
Strike out..
Trout.

[ulmax]

Still a heck of a team..if.
They can accually pull.
It off..
My bet .
Stanton..
Sabatages..every effort.

 

[ulmax]

Im good with almost any where.
the mariners go..

Without..
Stanton..

They will.go nowhere.with him .

The biggest priority .
Dump....ownership..

 

[ulmax]

Seattle .is Rudolph..the.
Raindeer..
Not aloud to play .baseball
Or play in.the off-season.
Or post season..
Only..an endless .

Cash.cow..for.ownership.
That's no fun..for
my money..
The tickets are worth..
Less..

As fans..have .forsaw..

Don't
blame.them..stanton.
They...are . ..
Smarter...than..
You .

 

[ulmax]

In a year when.forbs.has
The mariners as the most.
Profitable..franchise .
In mlb..

Is it not.tiime to sell....
I think it is....
Before.fans..make ya a looser..

 

[ulmax]

A .200 mil..budget..
Is necessary...any owner.that can handle.
That..in the 10th biggest
Sports market ..
There has to be a few..
Mariners..haul in .
Prob 600 mil..a year

Seems doable..

 

[ulmax]

Cris Larson .100mil..
In 1992..bought the team.
For 100mil..
Stanton..in.2016..for 1.2.billion...
Are the owners .
Mariners.are now worth.
2.2.billion..

 

[ulmax]

Stanton will exceed.his..
Investment.by..double..soon..

Larson .has already..
By far..

But you were counting.
On fan stupidity ..

Well.thats a fail..
